Okay, just maybe you guys should know me a little more personal.

Starting this coming Monday, I'll be doing Orisue full time.

For the past months, Orisue has been a side project from my full time job as a Creative Director for a Marketing Firm. I worked there from 10AM - 4PM then from 4PM - 12AM at the Orisue office. Yes, even with a small team at Orisue, theres still a lot of work to be done ( ;

But I am very fortunate to say that I have such great supporters, friends and family worldwide to be doing what I am doing now. More so, I am blessed to have such people to stand by me every step for the many years to come.

Lastly, thank you to the fam on Hypebeasters.

that's real talk.

it's nice to know there are still people out there pursuing what they actually want to do in life, instead of just conforming to specific societal expectations. more power to you mike. good career moves you made.

Oh yes, and those who are struggling to become "somebody", don't be so hard on yourself. Take that steady pace because patience is everything. And with patience, leaves minimal room for mistakes. However, it is through trial and error that makes you a professional. Good luck to you and your future endeavors.

Maybe a dumb question, but how exactly is this brand pronounced? And I hope people don't get the wrong idea and think you're trying to make money off of a man that just died...Dilla.

We don't have any stores in SF city yet. However, FTK in Visalia and Orange Cove will be carrying our goods.

In response to the J Dilla joint. Some of the proceeds will go to his family and some of the proceeds will be going to a nonprofit organization for beneficial reasons to help the unfortunate kids. We do not intend to make money off J Dilla. The man deserves all the credit he deserves for the past years he has put into the game. And yes, we've let the family know.
